Do not install the oven: near a heater or ammable material; locations that are humid, oily,
dusty or exposed to direct sunlight or water; or where gas may leak; or an uneven surface.
This oven must be properly grounded in accordance with local and national codes.
Regularly use a dry cloth to remove foreign substances from the power plug terminals and
contacts.
Do not pull, excessively bend, or place heavy objects on the power cord.
If there is a gas leak (propane, LP, etc) ventilate immediately. Do not touch the power cord.
Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
While the oven is operating, do not turn it off by unplugging the power cord.
Do not insert ngers or foreign substances. If foreign substances enter the oven, unplug

Safety instructions
Microwave warning
Microwave heating of beverages may result in delayed eruptive boiling; always use caution
when handling the container. Always allow beverages to stand at least 20 seconds before
handling. If necessary, stir during heating. Always stir after heating.
In the event of scalding, follow these First Aid instructions:
1. Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
2. Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
3. Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.
To avoid damaging the tray or rack, do not put the tray or rack in water shortly after
cooking.
Do not use the oven for deep fat frying because the oil temperature cannot be controlled.
This could result in a sudden boil over of hot oils.
Microwave oven precautions
Only use microwave-safe utensils. Do not use metallic containers, gold or silver trimmed
dinnerware, skewers, etc.
Remove wire twist ties. Electric arcing may occur.
Do not use the oven to dry papers or clothes.
Use shorter times for small amounts of food to prevent overheating or burning.
Keep the power cord and power plug away from water and heat sources.
To avoid the risk of explosion, do not heat eggs with shells or hard-boiled eggs. Do not
heat airtight or vacuum-sealed containers, nuts, tomatoes, etc.
Do not cover the ventilation slots with cloth or paper. This is a re hazard. The oven may
overheat and turn off automatically and will remain off until it cools sufciently.
Always use oven mitts when removing a dish.
Stir liquids halfway during heating or after heating ends and allow the liquid stand at least
20 seconds after heating to prevent eruptive boiling.
Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the door to avoid getting scalded by
escaping hot air or steam.
Do not operate the oven when it is empty. The oven will automatically shut down for
30 minutes for safety purposes. We recommend placing a glass of water inside the oven at
all times to absorb microwave energy in case the oven is started accidentally.
Install the oven in compliance with the clearances in this manual. (See Installing your
microwave oven.)
Use caution when connecting other electrical appliances to sockets near the oven.
Microwave operation precautions
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to
microwave energy.
Do not operate the oven with the door open. Do not tamper with the safety interlocks
(door latches). Do not insert anything into the safety interlock holes.
Do not place any object between the oven door and front face or allow food or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Keep the door and door sealing surfaces
clean by wiping with a damp cloth and then with a soft, dry cloth after each use.
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. Only operate after it has been repaired by a
qualied technician.
Important: the oven door must close properly. The door must not be bent; the door
hinges must not be broken or loose; the door seals and sealing surfaces must not be
damaged.
All adjustments or repairs must be done by a qualied technician.

Microwave oven use
Microwave oven use
How a microwave oven works
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released
enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the
colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
Defrost
Reheat
Cook
Cooking principle
1. The microwaves generated by the
magnetron reected at cavity and
are distributed uniformly as the food
rotates on the turntable. The food is
thus cooked evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the
food up to a depth of about 1 inch
(2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the
heat is dissipated within the food.
3. Cooking times vary according to the
container used and the properties of
the food:
Quantity and density
Water content
Initial temperature (refrigerated
or not)
NOTE
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even
when you have taken the food out of the microwave oven. Standing times
specied in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
Even cooking of the food right to the centre.
The same temperature throughout the food.
Checking that your oven is operating correctly
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is
working correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled
Troubleshooting” on the page 42-45.
NOTE
